Just because I know you guys love a gratuitous shaft pic...

That is shaft abuse, should be seat belted in for transport...

Near 80° yesterday 42° today winters hanging on
Apparently the sig 320 has an issue

The 6mm winch plate which is bolted to the chassis. Here’s a few pics I tookwhile doing it. If I had a bit more time I would have added another bolt to each side of the chassis . Which I will probably do some time soon just for peace of mind.. as it is a big winch for the plate . you see the square hole in the chassis in pic 1 and in pic 2 it’s just a bolt 12.9 with a washer. In that sq hole . That’s why I really want to drill another hole and add another bolt. However the winch bolts supplied to fix it to the plate are m10 12.9 x4 … so if I do the maffs I think it’s ok with the other bolts as it is

Anyway It had to be drivable at the end of the day. And all the faff of fitting the bumper and it not fitting then the cutting the inner bumper bit by bit till it fitted took more time than i thought.

I wired it up today to a solenoid /rely, I just put a switch to it to be sure it worked , then I fitted the dash switch and had the joys of routing the wiring . Anyways the dash switch works to power the winch now. Which looks professional

Ah, looks good. From the first picks it didn’t look like it was tied into the frame rails, just the little crossmember

Well guys, I need your help if you can spare some.

Lydia is the daughter of one of my staff and she is epileptic, she has had a couple brain surgeries to try and fix it but they have been unsuccessful so far. Yesterday they travelled to Toronto and tomorrow she will be going under the knife again, and this time it is not a laser that they are going to cut with but an actual knife.

If you could spare some positive energy, or if you pray please send some Lydia's way. She and her family deserve some good luck and a positive outcome.

I will pray for her and her family

Prayers of help and health for Lydia and her family. I'll get our crew to pray a prayer of healing for her Saturday in the lodge.

Nothing here, just colder. Good day to finish cutting some wood before the kids go back to school Monday, lol. I’ll sit in the mini X moving and holding logs, lol.

Sup meatpuppets?

Got my battery cables for my car yesterday. 0 Guage. 48" positive cable, 36" ground. The ground also has an 8 GA lead for the frame. $65 shipped to me.


Battery cables USA.
Some of you will probably want to hit them up for new electric dent puller cables...

Good morning guys,
I'm following a couple of packages, one Polish and one Swedish.
Got to have some more coffee before I start sorting through all my mess. About 10 years of throwing bags and boxes of leftovers in one small room lol

For those of you who have snow and are considering moving, it is about 50˚F here and spring is in full swing.
